Why RTP?
Strategically located between three of the country’s most
prestigious research universities, The Research Triangle Park
(RTP) is home to some of the most innovative and cuttingedge technology-based companies in the world. RTP provides
a competitive cost platform with quality sites and facilities
to meet and satisfy a diverse array of real estate and space
requirements for R&D operations.
RTP space options range from large parcels for campus
developments to flexible office and lab space in one of the
Park’s many multi-tenant buildings.
Companies looking to join peers that are on the cutting edge
of R&D will find several advantages to locating their operations
in the Park, including a highly talented workforce, inviting
business climate, and established infrastructure and zoning.
For more information on purchasing land or space options
in RTP, contact Kevin Johnson, VP, Business Development at
johnson@rtp.org or 919.549.8181.
RTP Covenants & Zoning
RTP was established as a magnet for R&D to transform the
region and state’s economy. As such, the covenants and
zoning for the Park mandate that land in the Park be used for
research purposes, production facilities, and operations with a
high-degree of scientific input.
An important element of the planning of the Park was the
commitment to sacrifice the total amount of building and
impervious surface footprints to preserve the natural balance
and integrity of the land. The early planners of the Park used
the topography, drainage patterns, and vegetation of the
land to create an environment with the highest possible
physical quality for the researchers’ work experience. This
commitment to protecting the natural environment continues
and is a key distinguishing characteristic for RTP.
Who Can Locate in RTP?
Companies wanting to take
advantage of the close proximity
to the regional knowledge assets,
the Research Triangle Region’s
talented workforce, and a dense
concentration of high-tech
companies can set up operations
in RTP. A company can either
purchase land for individual
campuses or lease space in an
existing building. RTP companies
must also comply with the Park’s
comprehensive covenants.
Regional Overview

» Future of RTP
The Next Model of Science Parks
The Research Triangle Park (RTP) recognizes the need to
continue to evolve and transform to meet the changing needs
of global R&D operations. Given these new demands, the
Research Triangle Foundation of North Carolina – owner and
developer of RTP – works to address and influence land-use
and re-development issues to sustain RTP and the surrounding
core. The end-goal is to ensure that RTP remains a key
economic engine of a resilient and robust economy.
In addition to continuing to provide the types of space
options demanded by global R&D operations, RTP focuses on
attracting and retaining the world-class talent that will drive
these operations. As it approaches its 50th anniversary, RTP’s
ability to provide networking opportunities and to catalyze
collaboration and connections among the talent resident in
the Park’s companies and throughout the surrounding region
will be critically important.
Extending the Global Brand
The RTP brand is known throughout the world. RTP continues
to be a leader in the science and technology park industry
and serves as a model for harnessing knowledge assets and
connecting them to other parts of the economy. As it looks to
celebrate the past 50 years of success, RTP is working to build
on that global brand by strengthening connections to other
innovation centers in the region and to align partners around
the world. For example, RTP will be the proud host of the XXVI
International Association of Science Parks World Conference
on Science and Technology Parks, 2009, welcoming over
1,000 science park managers and other technology-based
economic development practioners to the Research Triangle
Region and RTP.
To learn more about the International Association of Science
Parks, please visit their website at www.iasp.ws.
The North Carolina Research Parks Network
In addition to RTP, the state of North Carolina offers a plethora of options for companies interested in locating in a research park or
innovation center. Stemming from RTP’s growth and success, an established network of research parks has emerged across North
Carolina, offering a variety of real estate solutions for technology-based firms.
The newly formed North Carolina Research Parks Network leverages the unique characteristics of the individual properties
and provides models for success for different types of research parks at different stages of development. Members of the North
Carolina Research Parks Network include: Carolina North, Centennial Campus, the Charlotte Research Institute, Gateway
University Research Park, the North Carolina Research Campus, and the Piedmont Triad Research Park.
